Roger William Corman (born April 5, 1926) is a prolific American producer and director of low-budget exploitation movies (films being made this way today are more commonly referred to as "high concept" films).
He has apprenticed many now-famous directors, stressing the importance of budgeting and resourcefulness; Corman once joked he could make a film about the fall of the Roman Empire with two extras and a bush. [1] [Apr 2007]
